Implement best mode of the present invention
Hereinafter, the method for using proton conductor of the present invention and producing this proton conductor being described in detail with reference to the attached drawings, and the electrochemical device that uses this proton conductor.
Proton conductor according to a kind of embodiment of the present invention mainly comprises to the carbonaceous material that mainly contains carbon of wherein introducing the proton dissociation group.In this manual, " disassociation of proton (H+) " refers to " proton dissociates from functional group by ionization ", and " proton dissociation group " refers to " functional group that dissociates proton by ionization energy ".
In this proton conductor, proton moves between the proton dissociation group, presents ionic conductivity.
As fullerene derivate, can use any suitable material, as long as it mainly is made up of carbon.But after introducing the proton dissociation group, ionic conductance is essential greater than electronic conductance.
Be as the carbon of carbon atom aggregation bunch and comprise the carbonaceous material of diamond lattic structure as what the fullerene derivate of matrix fullerene derivate can specifically be enumerated.
Many kinds of carbon bunch are arranged.Certainly, fullerene, at least its part the fullerene structure of open end and tubular carbonaceous material or so-called carbon nano-tube are arranged is preferred.
Certainly, these materials only are illustrative, because the ionic conductance behind any satisfied introducing proton dissociation group all is available greater than the material of the above-mentioned condition of electronic conductance.
Below, explain that the present invention uses for some typical cases of representational carbonaceous material.
At first, explain with the embodiment of fullerene as carbonaceous material.
According to this embodiment, the not restriction especially of fullerene derivate molecular species as to the fullerene derivate base material of wherein introducing the proton dissociation group as long as in fullerene molecule is characterized as spherical carbon bunch scope, generally comprises C 36, C 60(seeing Fig. 3 A), C 70(seeing Fig. 3 B), C 76, C 78, C 80, C 82And C 84Fullerene molecule.The mixture that should be noted that these fullerene molecules or other similar fullerene molecule also can be as the base material of fullerene derivate.
In 1985, in the mass spectrum of the carbon bunch bundle that the laser ablation by graphite produces, found fullerene molecule (H.W.Kroto, J.R.Heath, S.C.O ' Brien, R.F.Curl andR.E.Smalley, Nature, 318,162 (1985)).
After 5 years, promptly set up the method for producing fullerene molecule by the arc discharge of carbon electrode in nineteen ninety.Since having set up practical production method, fullerene molecule has become the focus-of-attention of carbon back semi-conducting material etc.
The present invention has investigated the proton conductive of these fullerene molecule derivatives uniquely and advantageously, the polyhydroxylated fullerene that oh group obtains is introduced in discovery in some carbon atoms of one or more fullerene molecules, even under drying regime, in the wide temperature range that comprises the normal temperature scope (promptly from less than the freezing point of water in greater than the temperature range of the boiling point of water (at least-40 to 160 ℃)), show high proton conductivity, also find introducing the hydrosulphuric acid ester groups to-individual or a plurality of fullerene molecules, promptly-OSO 3When the H group replaced hydroxyl, proton conductive was higher.
More accurately, to rein in alcohol (fullerenol) be to have wherein many hydroxyls to be added to the common name of the fullerene based compound of structure shown in Figure 1A and 1B on one or more fullerene molecules for polyhydroxylated fullerene or richness.Certainly, about the quantity of the hydroxyl of fullerene molecule, arrangement etc., can consider some variations.People such as Chiang have reported first synthetic embodiment (L.Y.Chiang, J.W.Swirczewski, the C.S.Hsu of polyhydroxylated fullerene in 1992, S.K.Chowdhury, S.Cameron and K.Creengan, J.Chem.Soc.Chem.Commun., 1791 (1992)).From this report, contain the specified quantitative or the polyhydroxylated fullerene of polyhydroxy group more, become the focus of attention at it aspect water-soluble, and mainly studied at biological technical field.
In one embodiment, latest find of the present invention, fullerene derivate can form from the aggregation of polyhydroxylated fullerene molecule, schematically illustrate as Fig. 2 A, wherein, the hydroxyl (in the drawings, O represents polyhydroxylated fullerene molecule) of each molecule of these contiguous molecules interacts mutually, thereby in the integral body of polyhydroxylated fullerene molecule or aggregation, show high proton conductivity (that is H between the phenolic hydroxyl group at one or more polyhydroxylated fullerene molecules, +The high rate of transform).
As proton conductor in this embodiment, can use wherein each perhaps polymolecular have in a large number-OSO 3The aggregation of the fullerene molecule of H group replaces the aggregation of polyhydroxylated fullerene molecule previously discussed.People such as Chiang have reported wherein usefulness-OSO shown in Fig. 2 B in 1994 3The H group replaces the fullerene based compound of OH group, i.e. the richness of hydrosulphuric acid esterification is reined in pure F (polyhydroxy hydrosulphuric acid esterification fullerene) (L.Y.Chiang, L.Y.Wang, J.W.Swirczewski, S.Soled and S.Cameron, J.Org.Chem.59,3960 (1994)).Polyhydroxy hydrosulphuric acid esterification fullerene can only contain-OSO 3H group or contain-OSO 3H group and some hydroxyls.
The preparation fullerene derivate of the present invention situation under, prepared contain hydroxyl or-OSO 3The aggregation of a large amount of fullerene derivate molecules of H group or its mixture.Since come from the great amount of hydroxy group that contained originally in the described molecule or-OSO 3The proton Direct Transfer of H group or its mixture, so, the integral body of these fullerene molecules or the proton conductive of aggregation are that the oneself determines, do not need to entrain into from the hydrogen of stream molecule or from the proton in the atmosphere, do not need from external environment condition, to provide water yet, particularly do not need adsorbed water etc. from atmosphere.In other words, the proton conductive of aggregation that contains the fullerene derivate molecule of functional group is not subjected to the restriction of ambiance.
In addition, have the electrophilic performance especially as the fullerene molecule of fullerene derivate base material, this performance not only can so that have peracidity-OSO 3The H group, and can be so that hydroxyl promotes the ionization of hydrogen to a great extent.This is one of the proton conductor of a kind of embodiment of the present invention reason of showing excellent proton conductive.
According to the proton conductor of a kind of embodiment of the present invention and since can to the fullerene molecule of each or a plurality of fullerene derivates introduce great amount of hydroxy group or-OSO 3H group or its mixture, the proton number metric density relevant with unit volume conductor conductivity becomes very high.This is the Another reason that proton conductor in this embodiment shows effective conductivity.
Because the main carbon atoms of fullerene molecule of the fullerene derivate of the proton conductor in the present embodiment or form by carbon atom substantially, therefore, fullerene derivate in light weight, be not easy to decompose, purer, promptly do not contain the pollutant that adverse effect can be arranged the proton conductive performance of its hope relatively.In addition, produce the cost reduction rapidly that fullerene derivate needs.Therefore, the aspect of other hope of discussing according to resource, environment, economy or front can think that fullerene derivate is desirable carbonaceous material.
Because the present invention, further found proton dissociation group as discussed above be not limited to hydroxyl or-OSO 3H functional group.
More clearly, the proton dissociation group can represent that, X is arbitrary atom or the atomic group with divalence with chemical molecular formula-XH here, in addition this group can with chemical molecular formula-OH or-YOH represents that, Y is arbitrary atom or the atomic group with divalence here.
Especially, the proton dissociation group preferably-OH and-OSO 3H and-COOH ,-SO 3H and-OPO (OH) 3Functional group at least a.
According to the present embodiment, electron attractive group, as nitro, carbonyl and carboxyl, itrile group, haloalkyl or halogen atom (fluorine or chlorine atom) preferably can be incorporated into the carbon atom of one or more fullerene molecules with the proton dissociation group.Fig. 2 C represents that also to the fullerene molecule of wherein introducing Z, wherein, Z represents-NO except the-OH 2,-CN ,-F ,-Cl ,-COOR ,-CHO ,-COR ,-CF 3Or-SO 3CF 3(R is an alkyl) electron attractive group at least a.Because except functional group, also there is electron attractive group, from the proton dissociation group between functional group so proton discharges easily and the electronics sucking action by electron attractive group transmits.
According to the present embodiment, the quantity of proton dissociation group can freely be selected in the carbon atom number range less than fullerene molecule, preferably comprises 5 functional groups or more.In order to keep the pi-electron characteristic of fullerene molecule so that obtain effective electronics attraction power, the quantity of functional group more preferably fullerene molecule carbon number half or less than its half.
For the synthetic above-mentioned fullerene derivate that is used for a kind of proton conductor of embodiment, as the back that reference example is described, the powder that can make fullerene molecule is through known processing, as the acid treatment and the hydrolysis of appropriate combination, introduce the proton dissociation group of wishing to the carbon atom of each or some fullerene molecule of fullerene derivate.
After processing, the powder of the fullerene derivate that is obtained can be pressed into desirable shape, and for example compacting in flakes.The compacting of powder can not use any adhesive to carry out, and this strengthens proton conductive effectively, and reduces the weight of proton conductor, produces the moulding material that mainly contains fullerene derivate.
Proton conductor in the present embodiment can be used for various electrochemical appliances suitably.For example, the present invention can be preferably used for a kind of electrochemical appliance, and its basic structure comprises first kind and second kind of electrode and the proton conductor between the two, and wherein, described proton conductor is the proton conductor in the present embodiment.

What the inventor carried out studies show that, in order to give carbonaceous material gratifying proton conductive, need provide proton conductive approach as much as possible (conductive site or passage) to carbonaceous material.Have been found that if use the as far as possible little carbon of size bunch and introduce two or more protons disassociation substituents, can obtain gratifying proton conductive on the whole in its outside.In this case, aspect acidity, improved the proton conductor of solid shape significantly.Yet, to completely contradict with other carbonaceous material, carbon bunch can not be degenerated and excellent in te pins of durability when oxidation, the composed atom of carbon bunch is combined closely mutually, and the result is that interatomic bond can not rupture, even the acidity height, also be not easy to take place chemical change, therefore can keep membrane structure.
Have in the present embodiment of above-mentioned configuration the third proton conductor in addition under drying regime, also can show with first kind and second kind of embodiment in first kind and each similar high proton conductivity of the second kind of proton conductor.
As defined above, bunch group refers to the aggregation of maximum hundreds of carbon atoms that tightening key lumps together.Because this aggregated structure, improved proton conductive, keep that chemical property provides enough film strengths simultaneously and form laminated construction easily.On the other hand, mainly bunch group that is made up of carbon refers to the aggregation of maximum hundreds of carbon atoms that tightening key lumps together, and the carbon-to-carbon molecule-type key that exists between the carbon atom has nothing to do.Should be noted that carbon bunch, the aggregation that promptly mainly contains carbon atom needn't be made up of carbon atom fully.In this respect, its major part is that the atom set of carbon atom is defined as carbon bunch in this article.The aggregation of in Fig. 4-7, having represented various carbon bunch or carbon atom.In these figure, do not represent the proton dissociation group, for example hydroxyl.Find out that from these figure the material that is used for proton conductor can have wide range of choice.
Fig. 4 represents to have the carbon bunch of spherical structure similar with it, elliposoidal structure and planar structure.Fig. 5 represents to have the carbon bunch of the spherical structure that part opens wide, and has been characterised in that one or more open ends.Producing by arc discharge in the fullerene molecule process,, produce the carbon bunch of the spherical structure that has the band open end in a large number as byproduct.Fig. 6 represents each carbon that has diamond lattic structure bunch, and wherein most of carbon atom of carbon bunch is in SP 3The bonding state.
Wherein most of carbon atom is in SP 2The carbon clustered materials of bonding state, if it has the planar structure of graphite, perhaps all or part of is fullerene or nano tube structure, then the base material as proton conductor is undesirable, because it is usually because SP 2Bonding and have electron conduction.
On the contrary, has SP 2The fullerene or the nano tube structure of bonding do not have electron conduction, because it also partly contains the SP that shows hope 3The element of bonding is so it is desirable as the proton conductor base material.
Fig. 7 represents the carbon that mutually combines bunch.Therefore, Fig. 7 represents to be used for to be manufactured on the example of carbon bunch of carbon cluster derivative thing of proton conductor of a kind of embodiment of the third proton conductor of the present invention.
In order to form the third proton conductor in the present embodiment, require in bunch group or carbon bunch, to introduce the proton dissociation group.In addition, further introducing electron attractive group in each of bunch group or carbon bunch may wish.According to following production method, the proton dissociation group can be incorporated in each carbon bunch.
In accordance with the present production process, produce the carbon formed by carbon dust bunch by the lonely discharge of the electricity of carbon-based electrode, and suitably make carbon bunch through peracid treatment, be typically and use sulfuric acid and hydrolysis, and also through oversulfonate or phosphineization, so that introduce sulfenyl functional group or phosphorus base functional group respectively, can easily obtain the carbon cluster derivative thing.
The carbon cluster derivative thing can be pressed into suitable shape, for example disk.According to the third proton conductor in the present embodiment, each main axis length as the carbon of the carbon cluster derivative thing base material of proton conductor bunch can be 100 nanometers or littler, 10 nanometers or littler preferably, wherein the number of functional groups of Yin Ruing is preferably 2 or more.
The carbon that is used for the third proton conductor bunch can have the cage structure that its part at least has open end.Carbon with this defect sturcture bunch has reactivity like the fullerene, and at its defect part (being its open end part) higher activity is arranged.Therefore, use each bunch base material of the carbon with this defect sturcture (being open end) can promote by introducing proton disassociation substituents such as acid treatments as the third proton conductor, promptly increase the introducing efficient of proton disassociation substituent, thereby increase the proton conductive of the third proton conductor.In addition, compare, can synthesize a large amount of carbon bunch, therefore can produce carbon bunch with low-down cost with fullerene molecule.
Being incorporated into can be with above-mentioned identical as the kind of the functional group of each carbon of the third proton conductor base material in the present embodiment bunch and electron attractive group.
The third proton conductor in the present embodiment can suitably be applied in the various electrochemical appliances, for example fuel cell.In this case, the structure of electrochemical appliance can be substantially with use first kind or second kind of embodiment in first kind or the electrochemical appliance of the second kind of proton conductor identical, still, first kind or the second kind of proton conductor are with the third proton conductor replacement.Because the third proton conductor in the present embodiment even under drying regime, also can show good proton conductive, so, needs to providing any humidifier or other to produce the similar device of outside migration (as water or steam) can be provided, therefore can simplied system structure and reduce system weight.
The 4th kind of embodiment of various details, wherein, proton conductor comprises a kind of tubulose carbonaceous material derivative.
Tubulose carbonaceous material derivative comprises a kind of tubulose carbonaceous material as its base material.The tubulose carbonaceous material comprises a kind of CNT material, and by the nanotube molecular composition, each nanotube molecular diameter is about several nanometers or littler, is typically in the 1-2 nanometer range.Except the CNT material, the tubulose carbonaceous material comprises a kind of CNF material, and by the nanofiber molecular composition, each nanofiber molecular diameter is several nanometers or bigger, and maximum can reach 1 millimeter.In addition, known CNT material comprises by the molecular Single Walled Carbon Nanotube of nanotube (SWCNT) material, each nanotube molecule is formed by individual layer, and perhaps by the molecular multi-walled carbon nano-tubes of nanotube (MWCNT), each nanotube molecule is made up of concentric overlapping two-layer or multilayer.SWCNT and MWCNT molecule are illustrated respectively among Figure 13 A and the 13B.In addition, the description of CNT, SWCNT and MWCNT only is illustrative, wherein should be appreciated that to the invention is not restricted to this.
According to the 4th kind of embodiment of the present invention, the proton dissociation group that is incorporated in the tubulose carbonaceous material in order to form tubulose carbonaceous material derivative comprises the identical proton dissociation group of discussing about other embodiment of the present invention with the front.Just as described, Figure 14 represents to contain a kind of example of the tubulose carbonaceous material derivative of hydroxy functional group.In addition, Figure 15 shows a plurality of tubulose carbon-containing molecules or the tracheary element of tubulose carbonaceous material derivative as shown in figure 14.Equally, Figure 16 represents to comprise-OSO 3The tracheary element of the another kind of tubulose carbonaceous material derivative of H functional group.
For to tubulose carbonaceous material introducing-OSO 3H functional group, to form its derivative, by the tubulose carbonaceous material of preparation halogenation, and the material that makes halogenation is produced this tubulose carbonaceous material derivative through using the acid treatment of sulfuric acid or nitric acid.In addition, can use technology for hydrolyzing to introduce oh group replacement-OSO 3H functional group.If the use hydrolysis, in order to replace hydroxyl with different functional group, as-OSO 3H functional group can carry out acid treatment subsequently.If non-halogenated tubulose carbonaceous material is as base material or raw material, so that form tubulose carbonaceous material derivative, so, this material can be through using the acid treatment of sulfuric acid or nitric acid, as previously discussed.Tubulose carbonaceous material about halogenation preferably uses fluorine.
Not only can be by above-mentioned wet method, and can produce tubulose carbonaceous material derivative by the dry method of following use plasma.In this method, non-halogenated tubulose carbonaceous material is through the plasma treatment in oxygen, then in order to introduce proton dissociation group (being typically hydroxyl) in the tracheary element of tubulose carbonaceous material, through the plasma treatment under hydrogen.
Above-mentioned only is the explanation of the preferred manufacture method of tubular carbonaceous material, the invention is not restricted to this.
The present invention has studied the proton conductive of these tubulose carbonaceous material derivatives, find that these materials are in comprising all temps scope in normal temperature zone, promptly, provide high proton conductivity from the freezing point that is lower than water in the temperature range of the boiling point that is higher than water (at least-40 ℃-160 ℃).The present invention finds that also proton conductive is higher for comprising the tubulose carbonaceous material derivative of hydrosulphuric acid ester as its group replacement oh group.
Especially, polyhydroxylated SWCNT material is to have the common name that many hydroxyls is added to the derivative of the structure on some tracheary elements in order to form SWCNT material shown in Figure 14.Certainly, about the quantity of oh group, arrangement etc., can consider some variations within the scope of the invention.Latest find of the present invention, the aggregation of the polyhydroxylated tracheary element shown in Figure 14 and 15, it is polyhydroxylated SWCNT material, wherein the oh group of contiguous tracheary element interacts mutually, show high proton conductivity, i.e. the H of contained phenolic hydroxyl group group in each tracheary element from polyhydroxylated SWCNT material or integral material +Or the transmission of hydrogen proton or transfer ability height.
By main-OSO a plurality of by having 3The tubular carbonaceous material derivative aggregation of H group is (if any a plurality of-OSO 3The aggregation of the SWCNT of H group) proton conductor of Zu Chenging has also reached purpose of the present invention.On the other hand, wherein-OSO 3The hydrosulphuric acid ester SWCNT of H group replacement-OH group can only contain-O5O 3The H group as shown in figure 16, perhaps can contain a plurality of oh groups and a plurality of-OSO simultaneously in a molecule 3The H group.
The same with the proton conductive of other proton conductor embodiment, the proton conductive that comprises the tubulose carbonaceous material derivative of the tracheary element aggregation with a plurality of functional groups is not subjected to the restriction of environmental condition.Like this, in order to realize ideal effect of the present invention, be unnecessary from the additional proton source (as water) of moving medium.
Similar with other embodiment, the reason that tubulose carbonaceous material derivative can show this desirable proton conductive effect is that a large amount of functional groups can be incorporated on some tracheary elements of tubulose carbonaceous material, makes that the proton density corresponding with unit volume conductor conductivity is very big.
This outer tubular carbonaceous material derivative mainly is made up of the carbon atom of each tracheary element, thus in light weight, and be not easy to decompose, do not contain any pollutant yet.In addition, the tubulose carbonaceous material that is used to produce its derivative base material can come low-cost production by the catalysis thermal decomposition of hydrocarbon.Therefore, because resource, environment and economic aspect, the tubulose carbonaceous material is considered to desirable material (Carbon Vol.36, No.11, pp.1603-1612,1998).
According to the research of the inventor to the proton dissociation group, the proton dissociation group be not limited to hydroxyl or-OSO 3H functional group is as long as they can give preferred proton conductive.
More clearly, the proton dissociation group can represent that, X is arbitrary atom or the atomic group with divalence with chemical formula-XH here, described in addition group can with chemical molecular formula-OH or-YOH represents that, Y is arbitrary atom or the atomic group with divalence here.
Especially, the proton dissociation group preferably-OH and-OSO 3H and-CDOH ,-SO 3H and-OPO (OH) 3Functional group at least a.
Equally, the proton dissociation group that is incorporated in these derivatives is arranged in mode same with the above-mentioned embodiment.
According to the present embodiment, electron attractive group, as nitro, carbonyl and carboxyl, itrile group, haloalkyl or halogen atom (fluorine or chlorine atom) preferably can be incorporated on the carbon atom of tubulose carbonaceous material with the proton dissociation group.For example, can introduce to SWCNT-NO 2,-CN ,-F ,-Cl ,-COOR ,-CHO ,-COR ,-CF 3Or-SO 3CF 3(R is an alkyl) electron attractive group, and proton dissociation group are as the OH group.Because except functional group, also there is electron attractive group, from the proton dissociation group between functional group so proton discharges easily and the electronics sucking action by electron attractive group transmits.
About the proton dissociation group quantity of tubulose carbonaceous material derivative, this quantity is limited to the degree less than the carbon number of tubulose carbonaceous material derivative.In addition, the restricted number of functional group is in the degree that must eliminate electron conduction.For example, for the SWCNT material, preferably per 10 carbon atoms of this quantity are one or more.
The proton conductor of the present embodiment mainly is made up of above-mentioned tubular carbonaceous material, and can contain other composition that does not hinder or improve proton conductive.In these other compositions, most preferably wherein introduced the fullerene derivate of above-mentioned proton dissociation group.
In the advantage of tubular carbonaceous material, compare with the complexity winding of its axial length and each structure, there is the axial length of tangible pipe, as discussed above.Because these advantages, when being applied to electrochemical appliance, flocking together with the fullerene derivate of spherical molecule and to compare, can form stronger more stable film.Yet, owing under the fullerene situation, can more easily introduce the reaction of proton dissociation group, therefore, can produce higher conductivity, so, feel that it is better optionally using these two kinds of materials according to special-purpose.
If in order to produce the composite material of forming by two kinds of different materials, mix and use the fullerene derivate of wherein having introduced the tubular carbonaceous material of proton dissociation group and wherein having introduced the proton dissociation group, can obtain further excellent function.
According to the present invention, tubulose carbonaceous material derivative can be formed for the film of electrochemical appliances such as fuel cell ideally.
These materials can pass through known extrusion technology, more preferably are dispersed in tubulose carbonaceous material derivative in the liquid and filter this dispersion to be molded into film.Generally make the water equal solvent as liquid.Yet liquid is not specially limited, as long as derivative can be dispersed in the liquid.
By filtering dispersion, tubulose carbonaceous material derivative is deposited on the filter with film shape.This film does not contain any adhesive and only is made up of tubulose carbonaceous material derivative, and wherein, tracheary element twines with the form of complexity.This film has very high intensity, can easily peel off from filter.
In this case, be dispersed in the liquid, may easily form the laminated film of forming by these mixtures of material, still do not contain any adhesive if fullerene derivate mixes with tubulose carbonaceous material derivative.
The proton conductor of this embodiment preferably is used for fuel cell.With the same in the embodiment of front, the structure of fuel cell as shown in Figure 9.
Hereinafter will describe the present invention in detail based on embodiment.
